I use a "dab" amount that takes up about half of my pointer finger's tip. I think the formula is pretty strong, if it's not holding as much as you would like, just try increasing the amount until it does. Make sure to emulsify, or rub the stuff between your hands, before applying. Also apply when hair is slightly damp for best results.

you have to put a lot of product in hair on either to not get it to break or "fry" the ends. You also have to use SMALL sections of hair. This has lasted awhile being used daily by my daughter and I. When this one goes, I'd probably find something else.

Let me know how much you like it. I also recommend Dermorganic conditioner. After I use it and I leave some on my hair it takes me 2 minutes or less to brush my curly hair. (I have a lot of hair!)

Rebecca, I purchased my shampoo some time ago, when I wrote my original review. The same 1/2 gallon is still going strong. Hair color still holding. Sorry not to be of much help.

I use a quarter size dollop before I blow dry my hair. Use less if you have short hair.

I really like the perm. I think with that extra long hair you should have three bottles. My hair is medium length and one bottle was about right for me. But you want to be sure you get all of your hair saturated. Be sure you have plenty of perm wave rods and take very small sections for each curler so that all of the hair is thoroughly wet it by the solution. I know you will love your new permanent

I just used 16oz shea to 8oz coconut oil and mixed it with my stand mixer. I got a several month supply out of that and still gave some away.

I don't use a lot of it, maybe 3 or 4 foam sprays into my hands. I have short fine hair. I put it all over.I also don't use it all the time. I alternate between Paul Mitchell sculpting foam and this. Does your hair feeltacking after you blow dry? Mine doesn't. It really does make it take shape though.

There are many variables that determine the amount to be used, this is not limited to but includes: hair length, hair volume, hair thickness, hair style*.I have short hair and presumably thin hair. I pull a small finger-tip worth from the jar when I do, wet my hands and spread the wax all over my hands, then sort of mash it into my hair. If you are applying the wax DIRECTLY to your hair, that may be the problem: I like to suffuse it with water before I spread it out along my hair.

I was wondering the same thing. Depends how thick and lucious your hair is. I have thin hair, same length and I bought two thinking I would need at least 1 1/2 according to instructions. But I always have some Henna mixture left, even with one packet.

I use between 3-4. I have found that this product requires a LOT to lather on its own. I have found if I pre-wash with a different shampoo first, I can use less of this product and still get a good lather. Still its frustrating that the bottle is so small and on its own you'd have to use so much of it. It ain't cheap!

Jody it's best to use 1.5 bundles when doing your hair. The hair is extremely thick once applied so don't use all three. It did not last long though. I was only able to keep it in for 2 weeks because it tangled...alot

A lot! I use it literally every day - and sometimes have to steal it back from my husband, who also likes it - I'd say a bottle lasts at least 3 months - I use about 8-10 pumps per day - a little goes a long way. It's not a styling tool - I put it on wet or dry hair, then use my styling stuff in addition. All it does is makes your hair look thicker.

Don't use a lot I think thats what it is you are using too much and u can mix it with coconut oil and lightly mist your hair I hope this is helpful

I use about 1/2 a tablespoon to wash my hair. I have baby fine hair, but lots of it, & about to collar bone.

It's really good; you just described my hair type. My hair looks great when I use this stuff. Also, no need to use too much because it defeats the purpose! Hope this helps! :)

I am caucasian, I use just a few drops on my scalp and about a dime size amount on my ends. My hair is shoulder length and thick and curly. I would say experiment with it, I have really dry hair so I use a bit more depending on how dry my ends are. It is mostly coconut oil so it isn't a heavy oil at all. :)
